I found two examples of type on my copy of Lady Gaga's new album which I scanned in and cropped. This form of type if definitely formed through silicone as it appears to look computer edited due to the movement of letterforms. As large pieces of text surprisingly these are actually read quite easily, although if this technique was used on a smaller point size it would definitely be illegible. This type breaks the conventions and rules of how type should be handled which then in turn matches the artist and her manifesto/ persona as a whole.
